Welcome to the Revolutionary Biographies Wiki!


Biography:

  • The biography assignment sheet contains objectives and directions, biography checklist, and research requirements.
  • The American Revolution pathfinder contains information on accessing databases and ebooks available through our library.
  • You must bring both of these sheets with you whenever you come to the media center or computer lab to do research.abraham-lincoln.jpg
  • Use the citation sheet on the back to keep track of sources (and to cite them correctly). Extras are available if needed.

Glogster:

  • The Glogster assignment sheet contains directions and a rubric for your glog.
  • Go to http://edu.glogster.com/login/ to login and access Glogster (login name and password provided by Mrs. Zwirlein).
  • Here is an EXAMPLE of a non-revolutionary-era biography glog.
  • You will need to login any time you want to edit your glog and/or view your classmates' glogs.
  • You will also need to login in order to view your glog when completing your self-assessment.

Self-Assessment:

  • You will use the Biography Rubric as a reference while working on your biography, and to self-assess your work at the end of the project (this piece of the self-assessment will be completed in class).
  • Goto your Mail Inbox and reply to the email containing the pre/post assessment questions (answer all three questions).
  • Goto the Discussion page to read the Revolutionary Biographies Reflection post, and to respond/describe your experience with this project.
